The staff at this childcare centre are absolutely amazing - kind, professional, and always attentive to the children. The environment is perfectly designed for learning, with engaging activities that keep the kids curious and excited. I feel completely at ease knowing my daughter is in such a nurturing and stimulating space. Over the time my daughter has attended, I've noticed very minimal staff turn over, which speaks volumes about the dedication and consistency. Read more

Traumatic.. the one word I would use to describe my child’s enrolment there, for both him and myself. This experience has made me doubt every childcare I ever walk into. If you want your child to be hit by an ‘educator’, baby sat by an iPad and discriminated against- this is the place for you. The centre & head office did not make appropriate accommodations to include my child who is autistic. He received funding for an inclusion person for his room which was not utilised, however blamed him for the ‘educators’ feeling traumatised and worn down. When really this stems from the lack of management and disregard for staff wellbeing. His enrolment had been cancelled after multiple complaints and concerns over his and other children’s safety, particularly about a gate that they changed that he could get out of. Instead of fixing the gates they chose to terminate his enrolment. If he can get out then what is stopping the other children. This place is a disgrace and is highlighted by the way ‘educators and management’ speak to the parents and question them about their personal lives. For the sake of your child, don’t send them here. You don’t know what else is happening behind closed doors after you leave & you don’t know what they aren’t telling you to protect themselves from the lack of care they are showing to your child. Child care is hard to find and expensive but definitely not wor to sending your child to a place with free spots especially since there is normally a reason people are also avoiding/leaving that place. Children deserve the same respect as adults do and you won’t find respect is a value of this centre. Read more
